Let’s talk about the elephant in the womb.  That’s the intention of e-Lovu Health, an ascending FemTech startup, who uses their pachyderm logo to introduce a new prenatal care model that improves birth outcomes and reduces environmental impact by bridging virtual care with traditional in-person visits.  The Green Docs explore this new “click & mortar” approach with e-Lovu CEO Noel Pugh and CMO Santosh Pandipati as they talk eco-hotspots, micronudges and, of course, Barbie.  By the end you just may find yourself wanting your own personal elephant… or two.

Nate and Bruce begin the conversation with the latest headlines: the UN Secretary General declares that global warming has given way to “global boiling,” California explores a new way to save massive amounts of water while producing renewable energy, and a new Hollywood release elevates the annual “well woman exam.”  Tune in for these stories and more – and find out how Bruce plans to be Ken-enough.
